RailsApp help Rspec Tutorial undefined method

Hi I am working on Daniel Kehoe's Rspec Tutorial. Everything went fine until I created the file spec/features/visitor/home_page_spec.rb . When I put the following test code in it

# Feature: Home Page
#   As a visitor
#   I want to visit a home page
#   So I can learn more about the website
feature 'Home Page' do

  # Scenario: Visit the Home Page
  #   Given I am a visitor
  #   When I visit the home page
  #   Then I should see "Welcome"
  scenario 'Visit the Home Page' do
    visit root_path
    expect(page).to have_content 'Welcome'
  end

end

and run rspec spec/features/visitor/home_page_spec.rb from the terminal, I got the error below. I get that the method was not defined but Daniel's tutorial just tells you to put the code in the folder above. Guess I am missing something. Thank you

rails-bootstrap/spec/features/visitor/home_page_spec.rb:7:in `<top (required)>': 
undefined method `feature' for main:Object (NoMethodError)

The only way I get rake test to run is to add the below require to test/integration/home_page_test.rb

require 'minitest/rails/capybara'

This line is already in test/test_helper.rb so I'm not sure why it isn't picking it up. I also tried adding the .rspec file with the options suggested by Daniel. If nothing else works, try that.

What's in your .rspec file in the project directory? You should have:

--color
--format documentation
--require spec_helper
--require rails_helper

If the .rspec file is set up properly, you will not need additional require statements in your spec files.
